I'm agree with Who again. Agree in all points, but I want to add one more. Shinnyness should be on app icons. Why? Simple, apps should be easy to recognize, should be distinct than the other kind of icons (mimetypes, devices, etc.). Mimetypes should be matte with some drawings inside, to recognize

I'm agree with Who. Nice icons, but we have to take advantage of colours.
